[Q] Battery Calibration

If im going to calibrate my battery and am using juice defender will it not calibrate properly or does it matter, just wondering if i should turn off juice defender before calibrating or not.

I dont think it matters. But i suggest you turn it off before callibrating. .

Yah usually you have to condition the battery which us by draining till its zero then you charge to a hundred than wipe battery stats at 100%

CPU Master Settings

For those experiencing long battery, what CPU settings do you have placed on your phone? I would like a recommended setting that's good enough for performance, but better battery life. Thanks!

I noticed great battery life with the stock ROM (which I'm running right nOw) only thing I did was remove bloatware.

How much did you underclock? Damn auto correct
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda premium

Down to 1 Gigahertz for Max and for min the same. For some reason when I try to lower the minimum CPU it reverts to the same as the maximum. Weird.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda premium

I didn't do a thing to the CPU, but I still get decent battery life, even on the long train trip home. One full charge lasts me about 10-12 hours (including standby time while I'm at work)

Did this look right?

Sorry my battery stats. I'm coming from the razr hd and I know the razr has 2500, but this seems to drop like crazy

How much screen time is the key, even on WiFi. Screen kills this battery. Appears like you have a LOT of on time.

What's your point? Most phones last way shorter than that. Be lucky that it lasted that long! Unless you have a maxx or somethine, this is really good battery life.

If you're not satisfied with the battery life order an extended battery, I just got my Anker 4400mah battery today and so far I'm loving it! The extra bulk actually makes it easier to hold and use the phone.

You charged your phone a bunch of times.

I had a maxx so maybe I'm used to that. My last phone was a razr hd. Here is right now with 18 min.screen time. While sending this it has dropped to 68. If this is normal let me know. I may have to go back to razr hd. I'm on stock but thinking about cyanogen.

What's your screen brightness level? You can't have it at 60-100% plus all the crap I see is running and expect out of this world battery life. A ROM change isn't going to help you there.
EDIT: Look at your awake time compared to your screen on time, whatever all those apps you have running are, they're eating up your battery, check mine out below. You really need to stop a lot of that stuff from running all the time, your battery life will increase exponentially.

Something is draining your battery, like mentioned maybe rogue app, like wolf put it best.try rescan media, it'll help.I have a 2200mah anker battery.vs stock.I run plenty of apps no power saver options on.

All that red in your signal line really kills the battery too. The phone is constantly pinging looking for a signal that but can't find. At least is my non-technical understanding.
A new radio may help. Or putting the phone in airplane mode when you are in a bad area

Why did you charge so many times? Running the battery down most of the way then fully charging tends to keep your batteries stronger longer.

It makes it a little heavier and bulkier, but I like it better that way. It's amazing all around in my opinion. No quirks or anything other than its hard to kill

Has the price for this battery been going up? I am trying to decide if I should jump on this or wait a little.

Has anyone used the zerolemon 2300mah battery? I wonder if it is worth the $20 on amazon right now. Currently on my stock battery I get around 2 hours of screen time before I'm at 20%. Really would like to get more than that while keeping the stock battery form factor.

Pretty impressive.

I just got the set of 2300mah batteries. The shipping was super fast and they were well packaged. They come with a wall charger that also has USB power outlet. I forgot to check the specs on the charger before I left.
I'm charging one of them up right now and I'll get the 2nd going after work today. The directions state the need to initially charge it for at least 12 hours. That seems a bit excessive. Zerolemon also says that you'll need to do 5 charge/discharge cycles before optimum performance.
The only odd thing I noticed is that they recommended discharging fully every time. Everything I've read states that you shouldn't do that with Lithium-Ion.

External battery drains FAST!!!

Hello, I have a 10400mAh external battery (powerbank) from Xiaomi and when I charge my Note 2 which uses a single cell 3100mAh from 1% to 100%, it charges pretty quickly and after charging it, the external battery still leaves 3 indicating lights out of 4 (which is reasonable since one light represents about 2600mAh). However, when I charge my Onda v971 tablet with a battery capacity of about 3600mAh (I believe that is also single cell), it uses the remaining volume of the external battery and it only charged from 1% to 67%. In both cases, to be fair, I have turned of the Wifi and reduce the background process and activities to minimum using Greenify when charging it. Therefore I am wondering what makes the tablet "consumes" that much battery instead of charging it... Any ideas. Thanks.

Try to install BatteryDoctor, it controls well the usage of your battery!
Luck!

I have tried it but it seems that the problem was caused by another factor. I did a factory reset to see if it could correct it.
